Wiesentahl House Is Bombed
VIENNA (JTA)—A bomb exploded in the doorway of the
house Simon Wiesenthal lives in causing considerable
damage but hurting nobody. Wiesenthal, director of the
Documentation Center of Nazi War Crimes here, said he was
surprised by the incident, having received no special threats
except the ones that keep coming in from time to time. "I do
not take these insulting letters from all over the world too
seriously," Wiesenthal said in an ihtemew'with Austrian
Radio, "Barking dogs do not bite. I am sure the person who
planted the bomb had not written in advance."
NEW YORK (JTA)-
Declaring that "no war can
provide, by itself; political
solutions," Simcha Dinitz,
Israel's former Ambassador
to the United States, said last
: night that the Israeli invasion into Lebanon to destroy
the military infrastructure
of the Palestine Liberation
Organization has opened
vast new political realities in
the Middle East.
In an address to some 200
persons gathered under the
auspices of the Labor Zionist
Alliance, Dinitz recalled that
following the 1967 Six Day
War and the Yom Kippur
War in i973, political and
diplomatic opportunities developed and, in some cases,
were expanded upon. In par-
ticUlar.he noted the disengagement agreement between Israel and Egypt and
the eventual process that led
Egyptian President Anwar
Sadat, to Jerusalem and
Camp David.
Dinitz, who is a vice president of Hebrew University,
said that while he is still a
member Of the Labor Party,
he was not speaking as an of- •
ficial representative of the
Party. Dinitz served in his
position as Ambassador to
the U.S. during the Nixon-
Ford Administrations and
prior to that was secretary to
former Israeli Premier
Golda Meir.
Now, he pointed out, with
the Israeli operation in Lebanon, the political situation
there has been shifted. He
said the first development to
arise from the Israeli action
was the shattering of the im-

Bill Would Delete Separations
From Income For Social Security
NEW YORK (JTA) —
A bill is. circulating in the
U.S. House of Representatives that would exclude
Holocaust reparations payments from countable income in determining eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
Reparations to Holocaust
survivors for personal injuries suffered during World
W^ar II are provided under
the Federal Law on the Compensation of Victims of the
National Socialist Persecution, enacted by West Germany in 1956.
The bill was introduced
last month by Rep. Henry
Waxman (D. Calif.) after the'
case of a constituent, Felicia
Grunfeder, was brought to
his attention. Grunfeder's
SSI payments, provided to
Social Security recipients on
the basis of need, were terminated by the government
after it declared her monthly
reparations payments as
unearned income,', placing
her total income over the eligibility limit for SSI.
